Show Notes
Could you listen to two songs non stop on a 14 hour flight? Today's guest can and did! That may seem excessive, but this is a man that opened AND tasted 141 cans of tinned tomatoes on Taskmaster NZ.In this episode we discuss how appearing on Taskmaster changed his life, how Buckingham Palace isn't as good as the palace in Aladdin and the VERY iffy optics of being obsessed with teenage Korean popstars when you're in your mid 30's.It's a really fun episode and David has really opened me up to a world of music I never thought would be for me. But it turns out... K Pop is class! David is at The Fringe all of August and has a full UK tour in September with shows in Leeds, Brighton, Glasgow, Manchester, Bristol and 5 nights at The Bill Murray in London. See ya there?

"The very first “post-surf” band. This London four-piece (extended to five on stage) was formed in 2021 when Connie came to London from France and met Archie (bass) from Worcester and Steve (guitar) from York. They blended their influences so seamlessly that they had to invent an actual genre to describe their sound. “Post-surf” is a pun to the “post-punk” dominion over the London scene of the past decade, alluding to the twist operated by these boys: post-modern themes in their lyrics and reflections on the chaos of modern life, but the warm and soothing sun of 60s California on the surface, embodied by their trademark four-part harmonies, surf guitars, and inexplicably strange chords. Their first album, a series of haunting ballads expunged in an effort to shave down their growing catalog, was released in 2025. “Poorly Planned Missions… Executed Worse” features ten tracks dripping with the band’s sonic identity and commitment to writing a song that sounds like it could never be written twice. Having opened for acts like The Big Pink and The Molotovs, they are gearing up for the release of the much louder follow-up to their debut, a cinematic whirlpool of indie bangers, introduced by their brand new single ‘Neverknows’.”
